A celebration of the fashion missteps of otherwise stylish individuals — from celebrities and fashion and media insiders to regular humans

In everyone’s closet, there is one article of clothing that truly demonstrates a momentary lapse in fashion judgment. I Actually Wore This is the first book to celebrate these fashion blunders and lets us in on how and why they happened: the purple velour jumpsuit that was supposed to make you look dangerous, the Baron von Trapp–ish Tyrolean jacket that seemed like a good idea after six beers in Munich, and the cocktail napkin–sized swimsuit. Each of these cringe-inducing items somehow managed to find its way into the wardrobe of a typically fashionable person, and the authors are here to tell you how that happened.

In I Actually Wore This, otherwise stylish individuals, from Bergdorf Goodman’s fashion director to actress and SNL alum Molly Shannon, choose the one item from their closet that best illustrates when taste took a holiday, allow themselves to be photographed in it, and tell the story of how, where, and why they bought this article of clothing that makes them mutter "what was I thinking?" each time they see it.

I Can Make You Feel Good is a 206-page celebration of photographer and filmmaker Tyler Mitchell's distinctive vision of a Black utopia

In his debut monograph Mitchell unifies his body of photography and film from his first US solo exhibition at the International Center of Photography (ICP) in New York. Each page of I Can Make You Feel Good is full bleed and bathed in Mitchell's signature candy-colored palette. With no white space visible, the book's design mirrors the photographer's all-encompassing vision, which is characterized by a use of glowing natural light and rich color to portray the young Black men and women he photographs with intimacy and optimism. The monograph features written contributions from Hans Ulrich Obrist (Artistic Director, Serpentine Galleries), Deborah Willis (Chair of the Department of Photography & Imaging at the Tisch School of the Arts at New York University), Mirjam Kooiman (Curator, Foam), and Isolde Brielmaier (Curator-at-Large, ICP), whose critical voices examine the cultural prevalence of Mitchell's reimagining of the Black experience.

In Vogue is a fascinating look at the history of the world's most influential magazine.

The complete compendium is illustrated with hundreds of covers and archival interiors of past Vogue editions, featuring the work of some of the twentieth century's most respected artists, cover illustrators, and photographers - from Edward Steichen, Toni Frissell, and Erwin Blumenfeld to Irving Penn, Richard Avedon, David Bailey, Helmut Newton, Annie Leibovitz, Mario Testino, Steven Klein, Bruce Webber, and Herb Ritts.

In 1909, an entrepreneurial New Yorker named Condé Nast took charge of a struggling society journal and transformed it into the most glamorous fashion magazine of the twentieth century. In Vogue traces the history, development and influence of this media colossus - from its beginning as a social gazette in the late nineteenth century, to the exploration of modern fashion photography and new visuals in the mid-twentieth century, to its status as the top style magazine today.

The book explains the makings of the magazine - from runways, to editorial meetings, to the pages of Vogue.

The thoroughly researched story incorporates first-person accounts, interviews with editors and photographers, and excerpts from stories written in the magazine by many world-renowned writers, including Truman Capote, Aldous Huxley, Richard Burton, Federico Fellini, and Marcello Mastroianni. Unparalleled in its scope and exceptionally illustrated, In Vogue is sure to be among the most important publications on the subjects of culture, art, fashion, photography, and media.

An epic visual story of wildlife photography's pioneers and world firsts. From some of the very first pictures of wild lions and tigers on record and the first-ever underwater colour photograph, right up to the spectacular images from the wildest corners of the earth that modern-day technology allows, Into the Wild is an extraordinary collection of over 250 images and 150 years of our efforts to document the natural world. Now, more than ever, these are the photographs and stories that matter.

"Gemma Padley takes us on a fascinating journey through 150 years of the wildlife photography that has informed and delighted us. The text tells us not only about the images themselves, but describes how cameras gradually got faster shutter speeds, longer lenses, greater resolution and are now mostly digital. But it is the patience and endurance of the photographer who waits for hours or even days in tropical heat or arctic freeze to capture these special shots: taken at just the right moment in just the right light and from just the right angle. Into the Wild is a must-have coffee table book."

Joel Meyerowitz: A Question of Color розповідає про експерименти в кольоровій і чорно-білій фотографії молодого Меєровіца, піонера в історії кольорової фотографії.

Відстежує ключовий поворотний момент в історії фотографії: ранні експерименти молодого Джоела Меєровіца в кольоровій фотографії.

Ранній прихильник кольорової фотографії, Джоел Меєровіц вплинув на покоління художників. Протягом п’ятдесяти восьми років майстер фотографії документував соціальний ландшафт США, який постійно змінювався.

Деякий час, наприкінці 1960-х, Меєровіц носив дві камери: одну з монохромним знімком, іншу — кольорову. Причиною багатьох дискусій стало те, як, коли і чому американські фотографи образотворчого мистецтва перейшли від створення чорно-білих зображень, які цінувалися в системі галерей, до кольорової фотографії, яка колись вважалася надбанням святкових окунів.

У цій книзі Мейеровіц розповідає історію своїх перших днів як фотографа, коли йому сказали, що серйозні фотографи роблять чорно-білі знімки. «Але чому?» запитав він, «коли світ кольоровий?» Він почав купувати кольоровий фотоапарат і різноманітні рулони плівки, читати посібники та експериментувати з кольоровими техніками: пристрасть, якою він продовжував займатися все своє життя...

Про авторів:

Джоел Мейеровіц — відомий фотограф, чиї роботи були представлені на понад 350 виставках у музеях і галереях по всьому світу. У 2017 році Мейеровіц був удостоєний місця в Залі слави Leica, і його описали як «чарівника, який використовує кольори» та вміє «зловити та кадрувати вирішальний момент».

Роберт Шор є автором кількох книг про сучасне мистецтво та фотографію, зокрема «Пост-фотографія: Художник із камерою» (2014), «Випрошуйте, крадіть і позичайте: Художники проти оригінальності» (2017), Енді Уоргол (2020) і Яйоі Кусама (2021). Він багато років працював художнім оглядачем, а також редактором журналу Elephant .

Where I Find Myself — це перша велика ретроспектива однієї книги одного з провідних американських фотографів. Як видно з назви, він організований у зворотному хронологічному порядку й охоплює всю кар’єру фотографа до сьогодні.

Він охоплює всі чудові проекти Мейєровіца: його роботи, натхненні художником Моранді, його роботи над деревами, його ексклюзивне висвітлення Ground Zero, його подорожі по слідах Роберта Франка по США, його експерименти з порівняння кольорових і чорно-білих фотографій і, звичайно, його культові роботи вуличної фотографії.

Весь текст написав сам Джоел Меєровіц, а книга збігається з великою ретроспективною виставкою в Берліні.

Про автора:

Джоел Мейеровіц почав робити спонтанні кольорові фотографії на вулицях Нью-Йорка в 1962 році з такими друзями, як Тоні Рей-Джонс і Гаррі Віногранд. Відтоді він став відомим як один із найвидатніших вуличних фотографів свого покоління. Сприяв зміні ставлення до кольорової фотографії в 1970-х роках, він відомий як піонер, важливий новатор і дуже впливовий вчитель.

The cosmos of John Heartfield – lavishly illustrated and highly explosive

The political collages of John Heartfield (1891–1968) have earned him a reputation as one of the most innovative graphic artists of the Weimar Republic. His photomontages and book covers based on collages which had their origins in Berlin’s Dada scene were directed against Fascism and made him internationally famous. Their explosive power has lost none of its impact.

Heartfield was a sharp and uncompromising observer who subverted the documentary character of the press photograph. He employed his art as political propaganda, and fought against war and Fascism with gripping pictures and trenchant humour. This catalogue will include not only the working materials which reveal Heartfield’s method but also his trick films, work for the theatre and book design. The original art-works and documents all derive from his personal estate in Berlin. Statements by contemporary artists formulate positions and pose questions, which Heartfield’s work raises in the age of fake news.

Ще до початку свого заслання Куделка вже створив дві роботи великого значення. Одна документувала Празьку весну, а інша, про циган, могла б бути майже етнологічним дослідженням, якби її зображення не були сповнені стільки емоцій. Невідомий у 1970 році, він став одним із найвпливовіших фотографів того часу. Ця книга показує, що на землях вигнання, якими він подорожує зі своїм дивовижним бажанням бачити, особливий талант Куделки був підтверджений та розширений.

An intimate meditation on love and loss from the acclaimed non-conformist photographer, featuring portraits of luminaries such as Vivienne Westwood

Throughout his 35-year career, Juergen Teller has been renowned for his non-conformist style, defying expectations with a unique combination of seriousness and self-irony, creating authentic narratives from his insatiable curiosity for life and the endlessly surprising world around him. i need to live, accompanying Teller’s major solo exhibition at the Grand Palais Éphémère, Paris, in 2023–24 and the Triennale Milano in 2024, captures the depth of his unmatched photographic achievement. Storytelling has always been integral to Teller’s practice, realized through the unconventional merging of his personal experience and commercial work in a range of genres: from portraiture and landscapes, to nudes, still lifes and the ever-changing self-portrait. This book embodies Teller’s interest in the unpredictable circle of life and a desire to explore his self and his familial relationships with a new poignancy — reflecting on the loss of close collaborators and friends including fashion designer Vivienne Westwood and gallerist Suzanne Tarasieve, while celebrating the arrival of his third child and the fruitful creative relationship with his wife and muse, Dovile Drizyte.

You have good experiences, bad experiences, funny experiences. Life is full of complexity, and I wanted to show that. - Juergen Teller

A compact revised edition of Teller’s best-selling Handbags, featuring new images of Megan Thee Stallion and Roni Horn

This revised and expanded edition of Juergen Teller’s bestselling Handbags features a careful selection of images from the original 2019 book, alongside his favorite photographs made since. As before, Teller’s advertising campaigns for distinguished brands such as Coach, Dolce & Gabbana, Loewe, Saint Laurent and Vivienne Westwood are shown with images of handbags deftly styled for fashion editorials — all worn by celebrities and models or photographed as still-life objects. Teller acknowledges the visible shift towards celebrity endorsement in recent years, which has led to exciting new encounters with a multitude of actors, musicians, artists, writers and filmmakers.

In his unmistakable subversive, raw style, Teller presents the ultimate fashion accessory as an everyday item rather than as a glamorized commodity, often in surprising contexts (a handbag perched atop supermarket vegetables) or with humorous intent (a bag sitting on a taxidermy crocodile). This time around, More Handbags has the compact size of a handbag itself, making it more accessible and tactile — and aptly more affordable for all of us who might not be able to buy the real thing.

An American once said to me, “Where’s the money shot?” Here they are: the money shots. - Juergen Teller
